I have an 18"W x 18"L x 24"H terrarium I want to grow a ficus bonsai in.
Right now I have 46W of compact flourescent daylight (5000K) bulbs in a terrible reflector rated for a total of 3200 lumens - though im not confident that is all being directed at the plants given the reflector. I can add up to ~90W more of CFL if necessary though would prefer not to.
Humidity seems to be hovering around 70% but I can probably adjust that somewhat.
How much light is optimal? What kind of humidity is optimal? I want to grow a banyan style ficus. Right now I have a ficus benjamina 'midnight' and a variegated benjamina in there. I will probably remove one (probably the variegated) when space becomes an issue.
